To discipline or not to discipline/Answer

[Guest guest]

If he has AS, spanking is the worst you can do to him. There are other forms of discipline you should consider. He might not be able to understand the connection between spanking and bad behavior. And the bad behavior may stand for something else you have to find out. I am sure he doesn´t behave bad in the meaning to cause you sorrow and problems. He may be frustrated over something he hasn´t words for.AS may seem more verbal

than they actually are.They often learn by mimicking and it doesn´t necessarily mean they´ve got the full meaning behind.

Hello all! I am new to the group as I just recently was informed that my son's psychiatrist believes him to possibly have some autistic behaviors. He was diagnosed with ADHD and anxiety last year at the age of 4. I had three different opinions to be sure I wasn't being overly suggestive or laid back. I also recently met a wonderful man who has two wonderful boys (5 and 8). His oldest has been diagnosed with autistic aspergers, ADHD, and anxiety disorders. He is currently taking abilify (sorry if my spelling is off) in a very low dosage which has shown some promising results. I am not very well informed on how to manage behavioral issues in a child with autism or aspergers and am hoping to find some answers with your help. My friend's son has recently been having some violent outbursts at school and at home and we are trying to figure out what is the most productive thing to do. We know removing him

from the situation, but what should we do after that? We have talked about not spanking because it promotes agressive behavior but do we discipline at all or just simply try to eliminate the source of the outbursts (i.e. assemblies at school)? If we discipline what do we do? Do we ask him why he got upset and try to reason with him and let him know that is not acceptable behavior? Any advice you may give me would be so helpful as I am very new to this situation and want to be as supportive as possible and also know what to do for my own son in the event that the testing does show he is autistic. Thanks so much.
